Hello Manila! Goodbye Manila!

Glad to be back home but also a bit sad 'cause my sis would fly to settle down to Las Vegas the next day. She will soon get married soon and permanently settle down in the States.

Tatay composed a sweet poem for his unica hija. It was very uncharacteristic of him to show his soft side. Tricia read the poem during her despedida dinner.

To our one and only beloved Weng,

Throughout your life, I hope you will always

pursue sensitivity and kindness

as your chosen way.

Your sense of humor is wonderful;

hold on to it.

Being able to laugh

and the world will see you through many hard times.

Guard against bitterness and sarcasm;

they can destroy you.

Be yourself: the world will benefit

from your talent and humor.

Search for people who love and appreciate you

for who you are

and who will encourage you to improve.

Don't be satisfied with less than you can be,

for you have greatness within you

from,

Tatay - Mr. Mike

Nanay - the FAMAS awardee

Mel - John Lloyd

Jane - the Diningding Queen aka Gabriella

Tricia - the awardee

Oliver - Dr. Sadam

Myra - the patience of Job

Zenith - innocent looking coed

Mae - Ms. Workaholic

See you soon Weng! You will be missed!
